Why isn't my site not searchable from google?

[herlamba]

I'd also like to point out that I have some websites before that has no one linking to my site. For example this site. I never got any press release or people citing/linking this site. However, when I search for Bargains Closet. This search hits on top. Can you explain?

I am searching Google for "shopious directory women" and there are entries that come up.  Give me an example search term that is returning no results.

Just the site it self 'Shopious Directory'

The thing is, you have nothing in your business name with "Shopious Directory" (and probably no google plus business page named that either that I could find) Your business name is ""Shopious Indonesia" and if you Google that it comes up just fine.

Also, If I search for  "Shopious Directory adalah direktori toko toko fashion" you are found as well so your site is being indexed. I just don't think you have used 'Shopious Directory' term all over your website enough for Google to pick it up as a brand.

When you say business name.. you mean Google Plus or what are you referring to? I have a Shopious Directory in my title tag.

I just don't think it's enough of a signal for Google just to put that in your title tag. Seems to be working ok in Yahoo and Bing search . If you search for "SHOPIOUS DIRECTORY" you do show up.

Most of the time, your Brand name will go at the end of your title tag. So now you have a conflict. Seems like you have an identity crisis. What is the true name of your business? Shopious, Shopious Indonesia, Shopious Directory

A couple of FYI's

You have multiple H1 tags on your home page. Probably not the greatest idea. If you are doing this to size text, probably better to do it with css.

You have registered your domain through GoDaddy and it looks like you have used your personal residence. If you did, you might want to purchase domain privacy to hide this.

Thanks for the explanation. I am putting my brand name at the end of my title tag right? I wanted to use Shopious Directory when user searches for Shopious Directory and I wanted Shopious Directory to show up when a user searches for Shopious. Also can you explain the issue with H1? I will fix the domain privacy for this.

Here is a good video about title tags:

I have caught my web developer doing this and I straightened him out real quick. H1,H2,H3 etc are designed to give hierarchy to a web page. I think of it as a priority order of your content.

What happens is that it's real easy to put an H1 tag around text to make the font bigger and even use H2 tags to do the same. My web guy put an H1 tag around the phone number at  the top of the page and that is what Google used to show in the description meta in search listings.

In short, you should use the tags as intended. Here is a link on the subject.
